Nebraska City High School is the public secondary school in Nebraska City, Nebraska, United States. It serves 9th through 12th grades. The athletic teams of all Nebraska City Public Schools are named the Pioneers. NCHS is located at 141 Steinhart Park Road.History1880 saw the first graduating class of NCHS, with the first graduate being Cornelia Kimmel.The current building was not the first high school in Nebraska City. Its predecessor was the first in Nebraska. Partially for this and other reasons, such as being the home of Arbor Day and being the oldest town in the state, the athletic team's name (then the "Golden Avalanches" or, unofficially, the "Purples") was changed to the "Pioneers" in December 1938. The school's newspaper has, since the early 1900s, been referred to as the Otoean, deriving its name from its home - Otoe County. Many changes were made to the school in the 1930s and 1940s, including the first dances, first library, first mirrors and first yearbooks. During this time, Nebraska City regularly competed in the International Soap Box Derbies, including a World Championship at the fourth annual. In 1921, the NCSH Golden Avalanches won the State Basketball Championship.BuildingsThe original school was built in 1865 on 6th Street and between 4th and 5th Corsos. It was the first public high school between the Missouri River and California. The second building was constructed in 1874 between 9th and 10th Streets on 1st Corso. The Sixth Street Elementary later occupied the original building until its destruction in 1916.
